acpi, nfit: support "map failed" dimms

Stop requiring dimms be successfully mapped into a
system-physical-address range. For provisioning and hardware remediation
purposes the kernel should account for failed devices in sysfs. If
possible it should still allow management commands to be sent to the
device.

ASoC: Updates for v4.10

There's been a few bits of framework work this time around and quite a
lot of cleanups and improvements to existing code:

- Support for stereo DAPM controls from Chen-yu Tsai.
- Some initial work on the of-graph sound card from Morimoto-san, the
main bulk of this is currently in binding review.
- Lots of Renesas cleanups from Morimoto-san and sunxi work from
Chen-yu Tsai.
- regmap conversions of the remaining AC'97 drivers from Lars-Peter
Clausen.
- A new version of the topology ABI from Mengdong Lin.
- New drivers for Cirrus Logic CS42L42, Qualcomm MSM8916-WCD, and Realtek
RT5665.

Merge branch 'libnvdimm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"Several fixes to the DSM (ACPI device specific method) marshaling
implementation.

I consider these urgent enough to send for 4.9 consideration since
they fix the kernel's handling of ARS (Address Range Scrub) commands.
Especially for platforms without machine-check-recovery capabilities,
successful execution of ARS commands enables the platform to
potentially break out of an infinite reboot problem if a media error
is present in the boot path. There is also a one line fix for a
device-dax read-only mapping regression.

Commits 9a901f5495e2 ("acpi, nfit: fix extended status translations
for ACPI DSMs") and 325896ffdf90 ("device-dax: fix private mapping
restriction, permit read-only") are true regression fixes for changes
introduced this cycle.

Commit efda1b5d87cb ("acpi, nfit, libnvdimm: fix / harden ars_status
output length handling") fixes the kernel's handling of zero-length
results, this never would have worked in the past, but we only just
recently discovered a BIOS implementation that emits this arguably
spec non-compliant result.

The remaining two commits are additional fall out from thinking
through the implications of a zero / truncated length result of the
ARS Status command.

In order to mitigate the risk that these changes introduce yet more
regressions they are backstopped by a new unit test in commit
a7de92dac9f0 ("tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()") that
mocks up inputs to acpi_nfit_ctl()"

tools/testing/nvdimm: unit test acpi_nfit_ctl()

A recent flurry of bug discoveries in the nfit driver's DSM marshalling
routine has highlighted the fact that we do not have unit test coverage
for this routine. Add a self-test of acpi_nfit_ctl() routine before
probing the "nfit_test.0" device. This mocks stimulus to acpi_nfit_ctl()
and if any of the tests fail "nfit_test.0" will be unavailable causing
the rest of the tests to not run / fail.

This unit test will also be a place to land reproductions of quirky BIOS
behavior discovered in the field and ensure the kernel does not regress
against implementations it has seen in practice.
